Hi folks, its been a while since my last post. I have updated the website with the latest software. The new oscilloscope program includes a "phase shift" estimator. I also have a Beta version for a 2 blade propeller balance.

I've been thinking how useful this would be for prop balancing in-situ since it would be ideal for balancing big folders with spinner included. They are a bit of a pain to do conventionally since you can never be sure the blades are at exactly the same extension.

Also what about 3 bladers which are tedious to do on a conventional balancer?

Keep it coming!

Thanks

John

3 blade propellers would use the 4 point balance method. The trial mass would be applied on each blade tip.

My kit arrived last week, while I was away on holiday. I didn't expect. It to arrive that soon!
Picked up the package today at the postal office, can't wait to try it out.
As an electronics engineer, this thing appears to be very well thought out. The fact that the person who created this thought about measurement of the own frequency of the support shows a good knowledge of this matter.
Quite curious to the experience!
